When angel dust dealers move into his neighborhood, Rudy Ray Moore becomes the avenging disco godfather of legend. Yes, he avenges his nephew. Yes, he is a godfather. And yes, dear God, there is disco.

Great review, Andrew, thanks. I say it now: you should be given a doctorate for easily chasing someone's bad blues away with a funny review like this one. No meds required for me today after reading this.

One question though: where did you get a picture of my almost mother-in-law [the witch]? Yikes!!

Thank you. I'm blessed with excellent material to start, because it's hard not to find fun in a movie titled "Avenging Disco Godfather."

Disco Godfather was actually the very first Rudy Ray Moore movie that I ever saw. It was in the early 90's and I was in a Saturday Matinee store looking through the budget VHS bin and stumbled across this no budget laugh riot. The "put your weight on it" line that is repeated ad nauseam throughout the film instantly became part of my friend's vernacular. I think the next Rudy Ray Moore movie I saw was then Dolemite, then The Human Tornado, after which I experienced the glory that is Petey Wheatstraw: The Devil's Son in Law.

What never ceases to amaze me about the reviews at this website is the amount of humour Andrew can find in a film, that I am sure was not made to be humorous, such as this one. Good job, Andrew. Way to go.
